  1. CGY lost, no chance at #5 pick now #6 pick is a nice consolation though!
  2. They are the SHAW guys Dan Russell and Bill Wilms
  3. CAR beats DET! We are now at #6 pick overall CGY ans WPG tied at 3 going into the 3rd period We need a regulation or ROW win by CGY for a perfect night Dive for #5!!!
  4. Well, We went down swinging! Great season from the Royals
  5. WPG beat BOS last night! We now hold the #7 pick. We want a CAR win @DET tonight and a CGY win over WPG If this plays out and we lose our 2 games to @EDM and CGY We will move to the #5 overall pick! 8.1% chance at the lottopick
  6. CGY beat LAK in a shoot out last night. don't look now but they are 4 pts. back of us now. We want CAR, OTT, NSH,and WPG to win tonight A loss by us, coupled with wins by CAR and WPG and we drop to the #6 pick from #8
  7. old news, did you know that all the Royals games are being televised in Hi-Def on Shaw?(CH 303) Royals could have won last night, but, a few turnovers in their zone and almost every one of them ended up in their net. The Royals must win the next 3 games, with 2 of them in Portland. they will need a win in Portland on Friday. (it will be televised )
  8. OTT won and CAR lost, We are now at the #8 overall pick. NSH got a loser point
  9. We want OTT(@NYI) and CAR(@NYR) to win tonight and we drop to the #7 pick from #9. And we want a NAS(@DAL) win to keep them above us
  10. Coach Lowry will have his players ready. We will win our 2 home games, Look for the Royals to use their size and get this thing real nasty! The Cheaterhawks swirl and twirl offense will run and hide.
  11. For now, it’s still about the present and points, and not the uncertain future for John Tortorella. The embattled coach goes back into battle Monday against the Anaheim Ducks and will ice his best lineup — including Eddie Lack making his 19th-straight start — as the Canucks carry on instead of giving their starter and veterans a break. No first look Jacob Markstrom as a starter. It’s another chance to keep breathing with four games left and being six points back of the eighth-place Stars who have a game in hand. “My players have shown up and played hard and it’s long odds,” a hopeful Tortorella said following a short practice Sunday. “I’m a true believer and play your top people until you’re out and then you can start thinking about the future. I’m thinking about it, but I’m not giving in. Crazy things happen.” http://www.theprovince.com/sports/Inept+power+play+killed+Canucks+season/9707257/story.html
  12. any Vancouver Canucks regulation loss eliminates Vancouver, any Dallas Stars win eliminates Vancouver. any Phoenix Coyotes win in their next 3 games eliminates Vancouver. any Nashville Predators or Columbus Blue Jackets loss between now and Thursday eliminates Vancouver.
  13. NSH schedule - @DAL, PHX, CHI, @MIN NSH would have to lose to CHI or MIN
  14. DAL schedule - NSH, CLB, STL and then @PHX (tough schedule) PHX schedule - @NSH, @CLB, SJS and then DAL (tough schedule) Canucks schedule - ANA, COL, @EDM, CGY
  15. You said the same thing 2 days ago and then yesterday and now today, But guess what they are still hanging by a thread the players won't give up! We are the ones with no control over what will happen If they win tomorrow it will be a good thing If they lose tomorrow it will be a good thing so it goes,
  16. PHX has to lose all their games except a regulation win in their last game of the season against DAL
  17. I am sure that every player in the room thinks they will win the next 4 games!
  18. The Jays are in a real tough division with Yankees Red Sox TB Rays The Jays have a good team, but I am not a big fan of Manager John Gibbons. The Manager in Baseball has more control of what happens on the field than a coach in any other sport. He calls pitches, defence, hit and runs, bunts, base stealing, makes lineup, batting order, pitching changes, pinch hitters, etc.,etc. The game and team is completely controlled by the Manager! A Manager can be responsible for wins in at least 15- 20 games with good decisions in games, by the same token he can cost a team 15-20 games with poor decisions. So at the end of a season if a team is 8 games out of 1st, you could look at some decisions made by the manager during the season. I think Gibbons is the weakest part of their lineup. If he proves me wrong then I could possibly see a wildcard.
  19. Back to #9 pick with the win. but, all the teams around us won, so not much changes.
  20. NAS beat ANA last night! We now are at the #8 overall pick in the draft! If WPG(@TOR) and OTT(@NYR) win today coupled with a loss to LAK by us we drop to #6 overall with a 6.2 % chance @ the lotto pick!
